Kuroko no Basket
8

8th Quarter : I am going.

17 pages? This reminds me of bad times (Dogashi) >.>; But well, maybe this has a perfectly rational explanation, since next chapter will have color pages, and Fujimaki being a beginner, color pages should be quite time-consuming to draw. Oh well, either way, it certainly deserves its status high up in the ToC, so here I am wishing long life to Kuroko \o/

Enjoy~

Kuroko chapter 08

Page 01

8th Quarter : I am going.Left : Kuroko VS Kise... One-on-one match!!

Someone : That guy on Kise... Err...Someone : Isn't he the one with the incredible passes...?Someone : Eh, really!? I didn't see...Someone : But wait...

Page 02

Guy : There's no way...Guy : He's a match for him!!

Kise : … I could have never dreamed of that...Kise : Facing Kurokocchi that way...

Kuroko : … Neither did I.

Takeuchi : What in the world...

Kise : I don't know what you're planning, but...

Page 03

Kise : It's impossible for you to stop me, Kurokocchi!!

Kagami : Wrong.Kagami : We're not stopping you.

Riko : We're taking it!

Page 04-05 (spread)

Kise : What!!?Kise : He stole it from the back!?Kise : With the help of Kagami-kun, in an instant...!?

Kagami : It doesn't matter if you can copy whatever plays you see.Kagami : Since not letting you get through is our goal.

Someone : Oooh, nice shoot!!Someone : Seirin is catching up again!?

Kasamatsu : … they're troublesome, damn...Kasamatsu : The two of them working together is even worse.

Riko : With his lack of presence, if he's coming from behindRiko : Even Kise-kun can't react!

Page 06

Kise : then what about if I don't get through?Kise : Nobody is forcing me to.

Kise : With three-pointers...

Page 07

Kise : Damn it...!! That means Kurokocchi is taking care of the ground and Kagami is covering him with his height...!!

Kasamatsu : It's possible because the movement for a three-pointer takes time...Kasamatsu : These guys are really troublesome...!

Kasamatsu : The one that let them got the flow is that number 11...Kasamatsu : Even though he's the weakest guy on the field and shouldn't be able to do anything... I can't believe it!!

Kasamatsu : It wasn't the end I hoped for, but... It's over...Kasamatsu : Without these freshmen playing together...There's only increasing the point difference left.

Kise : Kurokocchi...

Someone : ... What should we do?

Riko : Kuroko-kun can't play anymore.Riko : So the remaining members only have to do what they have to do!

Page 11

Guys : What they have to do... But without Kuroko... Won't that be hard?Riko : The second years will take care of the offense!

Riko : It's only the 2nd quarter, but we can't let them get away.Riko : It's a bit early, but consider it a “critical time”, Hyuuga-kun!

Riko : Since Kise-kun will just copy you, you won't take part in offense, Kagami-kun! Focus on the defense.Riko : We've got to keep Kise-kun down even a little!Kagami : Is... Is that really... going to be alright?Hyuuga : It's alright, believe a bit in us!Kagami : But...

Hyuuga : I'm telling you it's alright, you fucking moron!Hyuuga : Listen to what your senpai says from time to time or I'll kill you!

Hyuuga : Let's go!

Page 12

Hyuuga : Geez, the freshmen, these days...Hyuuga : Listen properly! To your senpai! And bow down in front of me!Izuki : Captain, you've snapped, so you're saying what you're thinking!

Izuki : When he's speaking his mind like that, his shots are improving, soIzuki : Leave the offense to us, and defend like a madman!

Page 13

Guy : A screen...! He's doing it with the proper timing...!

Guy : This guy, he's been quite good since the first quarter...

Page 14

Riko : Sorry, but all of our players...Riko : aren't good at giving up.

Riko : An average guy when he's nice!! But when he snaps he's awesome!! And scary!! A clutch shooter with dual personality!Riko : Hyuuga Junpei!!#4 Shooting Guard178cm 68kgBottom note : A clutch shooter is a player that performs extremely well in critical times
